"It’s an excellent location to walk to the beach, parks, galleries, shops. Plenty to see in every direction you go. Loved the spa bath, to run the water from the tap wasn’t working, so we needed to use the shower head to fill the bath. That took a little longer, but we still enjoyed the relaxing spa bath. The bed, kitchenette , balcony, large tv was excellent. We will come again. Regards Eva"
